What does the Bible say about Israel's unbelief?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible explains that Israel's unbelief led to their being broken off, which highlights God's sovereignty in salvation.

In Romans 11, Paul elaborates on Israel's unbelief, stating that it was their refusal to accept messianic righteousness that caused them to be broken off from God's covenant blessings. This unbelief was not a mere lack of faith but a specific rejection of God's righteousness displayed in Christ. Paul emphasizes that while Israel was given great advantages, including the oracles of God and the very lineage of Christ, their persistent unbelief rendered these advantages as stumbling blocks rather than blessings.
